Actually, as ironic humour, it's pretty funny.
I'm old enough to remember when Harry said his own family was racist, and many Americans rushed to say what an honest and brave observer he is, and how his supposed experience was a disgrace. Terrible country, the UK.
Boot. Other foot. How dare he criticise the constitution of the self-proclaimed greatest country on earth and its glorious first amendment? That's not only a founding idea but the American ego you are challenging, Hal, a year in to your stay there.
You can only laugh.
Maybe we can just all agree that Harry is a dim bulb with less sense than a person with locked-in syndrome. When the lips flutter, offensive things escape from the piehole, coming direct from the moth department of his inner noggin. As a royal, no one questioned him. Now he is in the open market for words, it turns out it ain't so easy to produce wisdoms.
I'll give him this. He has a new angle on an amendment that is more variously misrepresented than any other. Bonkers? He's an original twit, at least. Maybe instead of the woke commentary, the virtue-signalling, the snitching and the offensive comments, he should make the Royal Kardashian Show about photographs of royal seats, in line with the original series. There's the American ideal of freedom of speech for you.
